Then follows the Winter Solstice, marking the transition to the theme of memory: the story of official meetings and more informal events, from the lighting of the oven to the planting of garlic, fava beans, chickpeas. The Spring Equinox celebrates, through different lenses, the people, objects, and places, and then leads us to the Summer Solstice—the landscape of the future: the expression of values, desires, and imaginations in both the short and long term.

In Logudorese Sardinian, Foghíles means “hearths”: in the past, and still today, gatherings around the fire represent moments of knowledge transmission and direct learning through storytelling and shared experience. The project aims to propose a new narrative of rurality by restoring relationships with the lands received as a gift, strengthening roots and shaping new wings—an intimate yet open practice intended to help us become good ancestors for the future. By hosting gatherings that celebrate the circularity of time, seasonal transitions, and the various forms of sensitive life, Foghíles reinterprets and interacts with vernacular knowledge, wild trees, dry-stone structures, and bodies of water. According to the agricultural calendar, the Foghíles year ends\/begins in September (su Cabidanni), during the week of the autumn equinox. Foghíles is a self-funded project, cared for daily by the Ni Sotgiu Family, together with a transgenerational collective composed of practitioners from various disciplines, intercultural guests, and local communities.

How can the past help us imagine unconstrained lives when not all traces remain? To explore these questions, Alice Hattrick turns to the embroidery designer May Morris and her circle, including her father William Morris; her mother Jane, an artist’s model and embroiderer herself; and MF, May’s gender non-conforming partner of twenty years. Through this queer encounter with the Arts and Crafts movement, Hattrick shifts attention from dominant narratives of design towards intimacy, labour and domestic life. Looking to May – alongside others who have found in textiles a means of resistance – Hattrick traces connections between these histories and their own queer identity, family ties and precarious working conditions within an ableist society.

Gaining a greater understanding of why people have used and continue to use psychedelic plant medicines—informed by those with rich expertise and knowledge histories—is imperative. The editors and contributors offer a vital, comprehensive, and deeply rooted examination of plant medicine ontologies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Distribution, Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53450894639451,"sku":null,"price":34.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/8951\/5850\/files\/zabriskie_PsychedelicPlantMedicinesoftheAmericas_ea01b40e-7070-48f7-88f5-025b479ad3bc.jpg?v=1782487338"},{"product_id":"praiseworthy","title":"Praiseworthy","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinner of the 2024 Miles Franklin Literary Award\u003cbr\u003eWinner of the 2024 James Tait Black Prize – Fiction\u003cbr\u003eWinner of the 2024 Stella Prize\u003cbr\u003eShortlisted for the 2024 Dublin Literary Award\u003cbr\u003eWinner of the 2023 Queensland Award for Literary Fiction\u003cbr\u003eShortlisted for the 2023 Queensland Premier’s Award for a Work of State Significance, Queensland Literary Awards\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn a small Aboriginal town dominated by a haze cloud, which heralds both ecological disaster and a gathering of the ancestors, Cause Man Steel is chasing a mad vision: a national donkey transport scheme that will guarantee his people’s independence forever. He finds, however, as he bundles feral donkeys into his Ford Falcon and dumps them en masse in the cemetery, that not all of Praiseworthy agrees. Outrage ferments at his desecration of traditional land, while Cause’s wife Dance seeks refuge with butterflies and dreams of moving their family to China. Bad feelings reach fever pitch when citizens catch wind of the suicide of Aboriginal Sovereignty, Cause’s eldest son. All are distraught – all, that is, except eight-year-old Tommyhawk Steel, who, with his brother gone, gleefully pursues his dream of becoming white and powerful. Told with the richness of language and scale of imagery for which Alexis Wright has become renowned, Praiseworthy is a marvel of explosive sentences, a shock to allegory, an outraged cry against oppression, and a biting satire for the end of days.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53456330457435,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0569\/8951\/5850\/files\/zabriskie_praiseworthy.jpg?v=1782558819"},{"product_id":"night-of-the-living-rez","title":"Night of the Living Rez","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinner of the National Book Critics Circle John Leonard Prize\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWinner of the PEN\/Robert W.
